I'll never leave you

Keep waking up, without you here

Another day, another year

I seek the truth, we set apart

Thinking of a second chance.

No Picture Badass	#3 by guess wha' i suck at Oct 3, 2007 at 11:05 AM EST
	i think it's about couple in a relationship, which didn't work then they broke up. But he still cares for her and so does she. so..they know that they just need to be closer, without commitment or anything, knowing that they can rely on each other. Thinking of A second chance (a second chance) --> i swear the inlay says "second dance, second chance" -- whoch probably means they or he realizes that something is missing and he wants to get back to their relationship... well, that's just my thought though...hehe..

No Picture Matt Lead Player	#4 by Matt Beach at Oct 3, 2007 at 7:00 PM EST
	this song is definately me and my ex boyfriend. he cheated on me and we broke up, but then he wanted another chance, so he sent me this song. apparently, he said he couldn't have written how he felt in a better way than this, and he wanted to make me realise how much i meant to him. it didn't work.

No Picture jimmy Wanna Be	#9 by jimmy henry at Oct 9, 2007 at 9:06 AM EST
	I think he's in a relationship where he really cares about a person and they're very loyal, but they just aren't close, or maybe they aren't as close as they used to be. That's why he's saying "I just need to get closer."

No Picture Kornowski - Wanna Be	#10 by Kornowski - Im не русский, Бог Черт возьми! at Oct 10, 2007 at 2:04 AM EST

	very cute song

No Picture edwin Wanna Be	#13 by edwin henrriquez at Oct 13, 2007 at 9:53 AM EST
	Well, I know my meaning is totally different than what anyone's said yet. But this song reminds me of my ex boyfriend. We've been on and off for four years and we're still very good friends. He lives in another state (it's always been long distance, I've actually never met him in person. I am next summer, though). Anyway, this song reminds me of him because of the feelings I still have for him (and he still has for me). We just won't do the long distance again. It's like we have unfinished business. We know we'll be together someday, we're just tired of waiting. I don't know. I know that's kind of random, but that's what it means to me.

No Picture Ben Rhythm Player	#14 by Ben at Oct 13, 2007 at 1:04 PM EST
	i think its about him feeling distant towards someone, because they hurt him in the past, but he wants to give them a second chance, but doesn't know how to do to it. He still feels animosity towards them, but still loves them; he understands the only way to get rid of these feelings is to get closer to that person.

No Picture Alexander Wanna Be	#15 by Alexander Taule at Oct 16, 2007 at 1:35 AM EST
	I think this song is about being in love with someone and feeling a instict to be as close to them as possible, physically and figuratively.

No Picture That One Guy Musical Genius	#16 by That One Guy at Oct 17, 2007 at 9:42 PM EST
	I heard this song on a local TV station's community bulletin board channel, lol (for some reason they always play the best music). I never heard the song until then but had to look it up. Its beautiful!

No Picture paste your name Average	#20 by paste your name here at Oct 21, 2007 at 6:19 PM EST
	Hi saracastic, I think everyone sees their own lives in the songs they here. When I hear it, I see me and my wife, even though I'm sure the song wasn't written about us :) It's a beautiful song.
